It's all new to me

I've been viewing the blogs of my children and others occasionally and have thoroughly enjoyed, laughed and cried over them at various times. It's interesting to me that many people write on a blog things they would probably never say out loud or at least not in front of a crowd. I think that's a good thing and I decided I wanted a blog of my own.
The one thing I enjoy about getting older is that I don't worry as much about what others think as I did when I was young. They talked about this on Oprah awhile back. It seems that when you hit your 50's you have a different mindset, it's not as important to you if you have a fancy car or other things that you once thought were important. Though I've always felt the family came 1st, it's obvious to me that the gospel of Jesus Christ and my family ARE my life and I love them more than words can say. Do I still want nice cars and things? Duh! Who doesn't? But do I need or dream of a Lexus or BMW-no. I'm happy with my Mazda and Bob's old truck at least for now.
